Even though Barrett's interpretation is a little difficult to understand, this is highly recommended for the foreign and Jewish-themed collections of all libraries. ["Grossman brings real humanity to this heart-wrenching and well-written novel": LJ 9/15/16 starred review of the Knopf hc.]
Grossman brings real humanity to this heart-wrenching and well-written novel, offering insight into one man's psychological makeup and how society has damaged him. An excellent translation; highly recommended. [See Prepub Alert, 8/8/16.]
Grossman's lyrical approach to the silent suffering of mourning is both a literary study in processing grief and a reminder that healing often comes through the action of putting into words the pain we thought was unspeakable. [See Prepub Alert, 9/9/13.]
Glimmers of humanity, life, and hope counterbalance the sense of despair, foreboding, and sadness that permeate this detailed and beautiful chronicle of Ora's, Ofer's, and Avram's lives. A final heartbreaking note from the author makes the story all the more poignant. Highly recommended. [See Prepub Alert, LJ 4/1/10.]
